The Copper Still

Great location nice cute little vibe. Janaya was fantastic she offered recommendations, price affordable. 5 stars to the bartender Shavonna !!!! Very friendly and personable!!! Her drinks are amazing very pretty. Will definitely be coming back.

Lively atmosphere, good happy hour, great service. The pretzel bites and Mac and cheese were delicious! Would be happy to come back time and time again!

Went on the afternoon of pride. The bartender Ross was so nice and accommodating to our group. The drinks were flawless and the vibes were immaculate. Go if you’re in the area!

I had the absolute pleasure of visiting The Copper Still Chelsea for brunch this past Saturday, and it was such a fantastic experience from start to finish! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, but what truly made my visit unforgettable was the exceptional service I received from Flavia and Liza. These two ladies were incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm—they made me feel like I was right at home. You could tell they love what they do, and their energy really brought the whole brunch vibe to life. I ordered the chicken and waffles, and wow—absolutely delicious! Perfectly crispy chicken, fluffy waffles, and the right balance of sweet and savory. I’m still thinking about it. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great food and even better service. I’ll definitely be back!

Great food, great service & great atmosphere. Came here during Christmas time so it’s hard to get into a lot of places but we were seated within 10 mins. The music was great & the bar was lively. Got the chips and dip and they were the perfect amount of saltiness. Our mains were deceivingly big, lots of fries as the side and our drinks were also perfect. 10/10 would come back!!

I recently visited The Copper Still during happy hour, and I had a fantastic experience! The vibe of the bar is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a long day. I enjoyed two drinks, both of which were delicious and fairly priced. The affordability of the drinks was a pleasant surprise! What truly stood out was the friendly staff, who made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Overall, I highly recommend The Copper Still for a great evening out. I’ll definitely be returning!

Service was outstanding. The hand cut fries with curry aioli was a pleasant surprise. We also ordered chicken wings, plain with the honey bourbon sauce on the side. The sauce was too sweet for me but the wings were nice and crispy. For a drink, as it was hot outside and we had done a lot of walking, I had the Paloma Tequila, House Made Grapefruit Cordial, Fever-Tree Grapefruit Soda minus the tequila. It was delicious, nice and refreshing. I would definitely eat here again the next time I'm in NYC. My only annoyance was it was extremely loud but there was a Pride celebration happening today and everyone was excited 😊.

Easily one of the best happy hour spots in the city. The deals are phenomenal and the cocktails are delicious. We ended up going here with some work buddies and tried just about everything on the happy hour menu. It was was great but I think the pork sliders were my favorite. The Brussels sprouts were top notch as well. They have a decent beer selection with a few on the happy hour menu. I’ll be back for sure.

Stopped by for a weeknight dinner and really liked the vibe of the place. The service was friendly and we were seated quickly, which was great! The drinks were okay, though a bit on the sweet side for our taste. Food-wise, it was a bit of a mixed bag. We tried the hummus platter, veggie chili, and a chicken sandwich. The hummus platter was decent, and I enjoyed the chili, though it could use a little more flavor. Unfortunately, the chicken sandwich was a letdown--the chicken was dry, and the bread seemed past its best, falling apart and crumbly. For the price, we were hoping for a bit more. While we loved the atmosphere, the food didn't quite hit the mark for us this time

The copper still is in a great location and a casual place to stop in for drinks and a bite. All of the dishes on the menu sounded delicious and they have a good range of menu options as well as a separate brunch menu. I tried the BLAT and it was excellent with the homefries. The service here is awesome! Ross is an excellent bartender and is so fun and friendly, make sure he takes care of you!

Great food, great service & great atmosphere. Came here right after holidays so it's hard to get into a lot of places but we were seated within 10 mins. The music was great & the bar was lively. Got the chips and dip and they were the perfect amount of saltiness. Our mains were deceivingly big, lots of fries as the side and our drinks were also perfect. 10/10 would come back!!

This is a late post for one of the warmer days we had in November. I was in the Chelsea area and googled happy hours, and I decided to give this place a try. I was happy that there was outside seating when I arrived. I sat outside and decided to order Nashville Hot Chicken Sliders and the beer and shot special. The chicken sliders were crispy and tasty. I will definitely visit again to try some whisky. The interior of the bar was nice. More people were sitting outside due to the weather. The bathroom was clean.

I was meeting a work partner for the first time, and we had decided on The Copper Still's Chelsea location for the gathering. I arrived at the pub first, which left me with the tough choice of where to sit on such a nice day. I was debating grabbing a table outside, but the corner was loud and busy, so I figured it would be better to sit indoors. He soon arrived, and we grabbed stools at the bar. The place was super casual, but still had great service and even a custom cocktail list. From that specialty menu, I decided to start with the Cucumber Cooler, which was also part of the happy hour specials. The drink included cucumber-infused Tito's Vodka, Italicus, and lime. While strong, I unfortunately also found it a bit too sweet, so I changed over to a Don Julio and club soda for my second beverage. My colleague really enjoyed his glass of Acrobat Pinot Gris, however. Overall, The Copper Still's Chelsea location was relaxed and easy-going, making it the perfect spot for an-person meeting.

Cool place to come for Happy hour drinks after work with friends before going to dinner. stayed for a around or two of drinks. didn't stay for appetizers or a meal... will have to come back for that. Got here early enough and able to get a long table for about 8 of us. Happy hour specials are available. Frose was delicious and highly recommended...just can't have only one for sure! Please make sure to drink responsibly! Service was good - it got busy fast so make sure you order quick before HH ends... There are separate individual unisex restrooms available.

The food is a three, the service is a five, so I'll assign four stars. No-frills pub with pub staples like fish n chips, shepherds pie, hot chicken sliders, crab dip, tater tots, fries, burgers, and other types of sammies. I had the smoked Gouda Mac n cheese (wish I had remembered to ask for bacon). It was hot and creamy, but I think it could have used some seasoning. I also had the Nashville hot chicken sliders. I understand what they were trying to go for with the breading, but my patties weren't terribly cohesive, and the breading fell off after a couple bites. I had the cucumber cooler, the Paloma, and another drink at the recommendation of my server. All of them were pretty good, especially at 15 dollars, but none were breathtaking. My server was understated, but very attentive. She gave me recommendations on the menu. And when a large 10 top was sat right next to my single table, she astutely noticed how that might diminish my dining experience and moved me right away. Prices were very fair, especially given the area. Most things were 12-15 dollars. The most expensive thing is the fish n chips at 23 dollars. Would I got back here again and again? Nah. It's basic bar food and decent drinks. But the service was excellent and it was a convenient snack on a long day out. I definitely don't regret stopping in.

I don't know how this place has four stars. I ordered the fish end chips from here and it was one of the most flavorless meals I've ever had. It was difficult to get through and borderline inedible. The only thing good was the portion. They give you two large pieces of unseasoned fish. The fish batter was actually decently applied. The fries were pretty bad though. They didn't seem fresh. The so called tartar sauce tasted like macaroni salad, like ur came straight from a salad bar. It was gross. Overall, very disappointing experience.

They have best handcut l fries and shrimp tacos. I literally crave them and bring lots of people here during the day. I love sitting outside in the nice weather. It's very crowded and noisy at night, so the lunch time and late afternoon scene suits me just fine. The staff always greets me with a friendly smile. I will continue to come here often!

Great bar with a nice little menu. The ambiance and the vibe is always warm, welcoming and inviting here. Fully stocked bar with a cocktail menu ++ several gin options. Plenty of seating at the bar, or at the tables, or my favorite, right by the window. The place is casual so its perfect if your meeting with friends or going on a date. They draw a nice crowd with a range of ages, so this place really appeals to anyone. The blistered peppers were perfect and the dipping sauce complimented them perfectly! Ill definitely check them out again.

Went back for happy hour and the menu was fantastic. Got some beers and fries, everyone enjoyed

Whiskey bar with a coupe location in lower Manhattan's west side. Some great options at comparatively reasonable prices versus what I've seen elsewhere. Some pours were 80% less from what I've seen within a mile radius. I had the Michter's 10 year bourbon and the William Larue Weller. It would have been cheaper for me to pay for a full bottle of pours here than to buy these bottles from local liquor stores. I appreciated the great variety and the fair pricing. Super happy to try both whiskeys and there were a handful more that o had my eye on. They had a gender neutral restroom with four private stalls and exterior sinks.

Possibly no better place than the Copper Still to rendezvous with your work friend, his mother and 4 of his other friends. We sat in an entertaining corner booth accompanied by a dangerously wobbly table. Luckily, our needs were preempted by a complimentary stack of napkins. The stack was the ideal size to stabilize the gap under a rickety leg. If you find yourself at this table in the same predicament, I offer to you this famous engineering solution. I ordered the Chicken & Waffles. It was a good take on the classic dish. The size on these chicken slabs was notable. The exterior was perfectly crunchy and well-seasoned, however the inner chicken was lacking in tenderness. Not a huge deal as there was ample syrup, hot sauce, and ketchup to go around. The dollop of whipped cream was secretly my favorite part of the meal. It felt like each dairy particle bonded to a pleasure receptor in my brain. I experienced a small high. This was a fun spot for a group and I'd look forward to coming here again!

- open late - great staff - awesome Brussels - ambiance is fun - chicken sandwich could use some work - shepherds pie needed more seasoning Portion was large! - spacious and easily fit our group of seven We walked right in, sat down immediately on a Saturday night 10pm

Incredible service!!!! Peter is the best, followed by David and Mana. Perfect Thursday evening, around 11:30. Our crew of five friends were super impressed and the cocktails were perfect!!!! Music was literally almost everything from my playlists. As I'm from Chicago, I love a great bar... We'll definitely return!!!

My friends and I came across this place while we were searching for a spot for brunch. We dined outdoors where there was quite a bit of socially distanced seating. The brunch special was served with coffee, which was very yummy with intense coffee taste. For the entrée, I ordered the Fried Chicken and Waffles. It can be difficult to create this dish, because usually either the chicken or waffles are standouts, but not both. At this restaurant, this is not the case. There were 2 large pieces of fried chicken breast, with a waffle underneath, along with strawberries and blueberries on top, and whipped cream on the side. The fried chicken was absolutely delicious! Lightly battered to perfection, well seasoned, delightfully tender and juicy. The waffle had a slight crunch and was also moist, buttery as well as tasty. This meal was a generous portion, so I also took some home. Service was pretty good, though it did take a little bit of time for us to receive our food. The waitress was aware and apologized for this. She was pleasant and quite friendly. I might return at some point perhaps to for dinner and to try the Cheese and Charcuterie Plate.

Casual and laid back bar but not a dive. Prices are more reasonable and the food is great. Service is mostly nice but can at times be slow.

I pass by the Copper Still often because I work near the area. I decided to make a reservation recently for my family and I to have brunch there. We all arrived just after the reservation time. The hostess at the time was very friendly as she showed us to our table. During the little over an hour that we were there, the restaurant got really busy but it wasn't so noisy that we couldn't hear ourselves talk. I ordered the stuffed French toast and an order of macaroni and cheese because it looked so tasty on the picture that we saw online. It did not disappoint. The French toast was really good too. Everyone enjoyed their food. I also enjoyed the music playing. Next time, I'll make sure to come back when the weather is warmer to sit outside and enjoy my food al fresco.

Excellent food and service, fun vibe. Comfortable for me and my adult son (I.e. not too loud!) while also an upbeat spot for a lot of young people out for an evening with friends. High marks.

We popped in for a drink before dinner down the street. The drinks were good. Service was a little slow.

Came here for happy hour the other day. Happy hour runs until 6pm Monday - Friday. Beers are $6, house cocktails for $7 and some cocktails for $10. They have sliders for $3 and fries for $6. We sat outside, and the set up is pretty nice. There were a lot of people out there on their laptops (probably left work early to take advantage of the deal but still had to work). The inside was empty, but looks like a nice set up as well. The service was pretty fast and everyone was friendly. The pulled pork slider was very greasy, but tasted delicious. The cocktails we got were good, but nothing special, and same with the fries. Overall, not a bad place to stop in during happy hour. We didn't order anything off the real menu so will have to come back and see if the rest of their food is good also!

I've been to the Copper Still twice and enjoyed both experiences. The food, drinks and service are consistently good. I highly recommend ordering "THE" espresso martini as a drink and the chicken sandwich for your meal. So delicious.

Copper Still was described to me as comfort food plus whiskey. That was all I needed to know. The crowd was a bit younger and more lively than I expected, but that added to the ambiance. If you want it a little quieter, sit in the back or on the left. The whiskey selection features a variety of Irish and American whiskies, but understand that with shipping problems these days, things aren't always available, so have backup choices. They've got some good cocktails too.

First night in NYC and this place was right around the corner. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich and it was everything I was hoping it would be. The breading maintained its crunch throughout, it was messy and delicious. Its a pretty simple sandwich, didn't need to be crammed with toppings, the slaw and sauce were such a good pairing. My husband got the mac and cheese with bacon, he enjoyed it but I felt that the bacon could have been cooked more (I enjoy the crunch of bacon). The staff was friendly, funny and efficient, even for a Saturday night where they appeared fairly busy. They are checking vaccine status when you dine-in, so be prepared for that if you're not from there. (Sorry my pic is from halfway through the sandwich, I was so hungry I forgot to snap one before I cut it in half!).

A year later and I brought my family. Sorry to say it was not the same. Service was erratic and the chicken and waffle was not as good. I was so disappointed especially after having such a great experience a year ago. I felt bad since I talked it up so highly.

Sitting at the bar while making this review. The copper still is lovely to hang out at after a day of errands - casual, lively, and filled with people of all ages, most seem to be younger. Service was kind and fast, and not intrusive. Menu is very straightforward and simple but all are winners. The food is yummy and very well priced - most capping at $14-$15 per plate (very good for NYC) I plan to be back soon!

I really like the vibe at this neighborhood spot. You will see this as either a positive or negative, but the drinks are STRONG. Like I don't know how I got home after a couple of cocktails strong. Happy hour here could be dangerous...

Love this place. The Chicken and Waffles were great. Lots of outdoor tables.

There's something about this place that in every time I've passed it it's given me a bad vibe. My friend and I had both the same adjectives really in describing it: deuchey, bro bar, over-priced American Irish gastro pub bar that's trying to pose as being an upscale and elevated bistro perhaps . . . . I'm not sure what you even label this as. Folks might love it because they do an all you can drink mimosa/bloody mary brunch on weekends for $20 on top of your entree on weekends. No idea. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt and raised my rating from what would easily be 2.5-2.7 stars to a 3 because times are tough now and I really didn't try their food so it might not be completely fair. Don't be deluded, this isn't a gastropub by any degree. There were about only 6-8 tops beers on draft of nothing inspirational. I had three rounds of Allagash wheat and my buddy had blue point. The requisite order of a food item wouldn't be minded if it wasn't suggested we get popcorn because the waiter looked at us and said "it's the cheapest thing on the menu". $4 for popcorn sprinkled with zaatar, lemon, and butter in a really opulent vessel that looks like at one point in it's life it held a fancy guacamole in its abdomen. I've had popcorn for free before in pubs but okay. The french fries had I known were only like $2-3 more expensive I would have plunged for since that's actual almost food and in hindsight I left a large enough tip that it made getting the popcorn a completely moot point. As far as the spacing for the covid precautions - its a bit weird. The outdoor seating is probably more ideal. If you're just two people hanging out, it's peculiar since each seating station is blocked off with opaque glass making it the most anti-social trip to a bar I've had in months. Meanwhile, the bar was warm and really stuffy so I'm not entirely sure how much a maze of plexiglass throughout the place helps. But it definitely doesn't help with getting the waiters attention for another round of drinks or the check. Since the menu is all paperless and online, it'd make sense if they set up an online ordering system that links to your credit card. I've seen that done at a number of bars and restaurants recently and it makes for a more fluid and quick pickup of orders instead of people sitting around confused and beer-less.

Good HH spot in Chelsea (corner of 7th Ave & 21st St) Happy Hours are 4pm to 7pm Monday - Friday Drafts $6, Bud Light $4, Bottled Beer $6, Well Drinks $7, Wine $9, Cocktails $10. $2 Hot Chicken or Pulled Pork Sliders on Wednesday's (there's probably other food options for happy hour but I stopped reading after seeing the Hot Chicken sliders!)

A toast to the New Year! An impromptu meet up with a friend for drinks on 1/3 turnt out to be a launching pad for some 2019 goals and resulted in my first review of the year. In the Chelsea area earlier for lunch at one of my low key favorite Thai spots, I hit up a friend (shout out to Tameeka B.) to say hey I'm in the neighborhood. With some quick text'n back and fourth. We made plans to grab drinks after work. We arrived @ about 6:30 to a light crowd at the bar (to your right) and only a couple of tables occupied (to your left) on a Thursday evening. We were promptly seated and quickly realized HH ended @ 7pm. Our waiter Evan did not hesitate to put in our orders for both round 1 and 2 quickly before the clock ran out. Lol. Drinks (HH $10): -Still Fashionable -Honeybee Food (Appetizers): -Bourbon Wings ($14) -Hot Chicken Sliders ($12) Service was great as Evan was a delight and the drinks were on point. I'm one who enjoys a good old fashion and their version was good but the Honeybee shined bright. The appetizers were also great, my preference would be the Wings (w/ ranch only plz) over the Hot Chicken Sliders. They were tasty but too much bread, the ratio of chicken to carbs was off. My friend agreed, since she has frequented TCS and had them previously noting larger pieces of protein to handle the buns. TCS is new to the Chelsea area, only a few months old but solid. With a dim welcoming feel of lighting and decor of some classic brands of alcohol tastefully adorning the walls it's perfect for drinks and something to nosh on while in the area. Just A Note: They feature a different HH special each day along with the drinks and they honor HH table side. (it's not just bar only)

Did some day drinking in the middle of the afternoon on a Thursday. #livingthelife The place wasn't busy at all and I got some prime seats outside. Met with a friend and we had some drinks. I had Allagash white and she had frozen marg. Our waitress was on point and brought the drinks out right when we finished our currents on cue. Fast and friendly service. Although I did order the fried chicken sando, but she brought me the fried chicken instead. A $8 mistake, but it was good either way. Now thinking about it, I still want that chicken sandwich more than ever now haha. My friend stole my fries (although they were a bit dry and lacked adequate dipping sauces). Another friend walked by as well and saw us, what a small world! Chill place with good vibes

The problem with this restaurant/bar is one thing and it's not the food! The problem is...when you walk in it smells bad! The bathrooms smell bad, just like the entire place. I don't understand, that as a owner of the restaurant, you ignore the smell because no one is complaining! I refuse to eat here. I gave it another chance after a few months and its still smells, as soon as you walk in. Shame on you for allowing this in your own establishment!

Everyone at The Copper Still did a wonderful job taking care of our group of 50 last night! I especially want to thank Mana, who was fantastic, making sure every little detail was tended to. Food was, as usual, delicious. Those spicy chicken sliders are amazing. And those fries...

Cute place, nicely spaced out tables. My table specially was incredibly unstable and wobbly which was a slight annoyance. The staff were nice but the food was just bad to be honest. I barely ate half and didn't even togo it because I just knew i wouldn't eat it. It's pretty hard to mess up on fries but even the fries were not good. Too thick. Tasted like I was eating a salted baked potato. The fried chicken was WAY too big to eat in a sandwich. The whole thing kept falling apart every time I took a bite and I tried cutting with a knife too. The batter of the chicken completely came off the meat so it was like eating grilled chicken with fried batter separately. I was excited because this is one of the only restaurants in NY that has ranch and gives it for free as well but the ranch literally tasted like cole slaw. I think cole slaw may be their signature food Bc the fried chicken sandwich had cole slaw in it. Personally didn't like it but could appeal to others.

Great atmosphere that's always lively. Prices are amazing for NYC and the portions are great. Happy hour is the best time to be there but that's just a bonus if you can get during that time

Yelp reviews lead me to this place. The yelp nation loves it so you know I had to validate that. Walking in it looks like your typical pub. It even has that typical pub smell which I am not the biggest fan of. The bar area had some people but the tables were empty. Don't think it is a hotspot for lunch so maybe dinner is better. The service was pretty good even though there was only one person serving for lunch. The guy made the experience nice for us. The menu is pretty straightforward. I have never had buffalo cheese curds though and they were the perfect snack. So good. The chicken sandwich had a lot of bread compared to chicken but it was still good. I went with the grilled fish tacos and I enjoyed them. Everything was solid but it was still bar food. Nothing really elevated about it but doesn't mean the dishes weren't executed well. In the end, the reviews aren't necessarily off. It is a solid place with good food and on point service. Don't come if you want to be wow'd but if you are looking for a drink and a meal come through. I have this at a 3.5 but bumped it up because I am feeling nice!

Great bar an restaurants I wouldn't recommend the Bloody Mary I've had better but the food was good staff friendly.

I was looking for fish and chips, but on the date and time we went (1:30-2:00ish on Saturday), they only had brunch. No worries! We just had a few drinks, but the place was nice!! and the service was great!

Really great fish tacos, reasonably priced. Happy hour drink and food specials. Good service.

After seeing a play in the area The decision was to try the Copper Still down the block. We were greeted by friendly wait staff and seated promptly. The atmosphere was lively and laughter filled by the many patrons. The menu is well balanced. After selecting our drinks we order the fish and chips. The food was delivered quickly and hot. Two good sized portions of cod along with a good amount of chips. And this was served with tartar sauce and of course we had the malt vinegar requested for the table. The fish was batter coated and deep fried to perfection; Not greasy and the fish was fresh and solid. Reasonably priced and a good meal all around, this is on our favorite places to eat in Manhattan. We will be back soon!!!

What an Mazing little piece of Chelsea. I came here in the middle of the day to check this place out and they were having happy hour. This is the third time I've checked this place out now so I actually have a good feel for it. I ordered the $7 glass of white wine and a salmon salad which actually paired great together. I sat up at the bar beacuse I was pretty much solo and the bartender kept me company while I enjoyed my meal. The bartender was actually good company as well as the people at the bar. The salmon salad made me super happy and everything was actually verry tasty. I will deffinatly be back around the corner on one of my next days off to give this place another try. I am deffinatly a fan of the lunch/dinner on the menus that they have here. Its just a verry good place to grab a bite to eat.

Everything you want in a neighborhood bar. Good drinks, bites, and excellent staff. Perfect for happy hour or a drink before heading to dinner. Also an ideal spot for an after dinner nightcap with friends. The espresso martini is one of my favorites in the city.

Went here for happy hour drinks and it was a nice relaxed vibe. Weather was nice so sat outdoors and enjoyed the scenery. This place does a good job as far as partitions and separating everyone, so I have to give them credit for that. Also the staff was very nice and very accommodating. Nice vibe, nice scenery, and good staff, definitely looking forward to coming here again.

We love going to Copper Still! The food and drinks are delicious (the kale Caesar and pulled pork sandwiches are my personal faves). They have a great beer selection. Everyone is friendly but Yanil is the best server!!

The food was decent for brunch. The service was the problem we had a server who was mean. I only asked for few things since she never asked . She never smiled I had to ask other people to help us since she wasn't attentive of her customers. At the end we asked if we can split she couldn't do that which is fine but the look she gave my wife. We were respectful we still tipped even though she did not deserve it. We asked for a receipt she never gave it to us. We had to go ask for it again. If you have servers who hate their job why do you employee them? Ambiance was good place . Service was complete fail very disrespectful .

A good casual spot in Chelsea for friends or a chill drink at the bar by yourself. There's indoor and outdoor seating which is perfect. The food and drinks are pretty damn good. They make a really good espresso martini. I was surprised. The beer and wines are good as well. Just about everything we ordered was delicious. The tater tots, guac & chips, sliders, fish & chips, chicken sandwich. They really know what they're doing here. Great bar, great bar food and great staff!

Had a quick bite a couple weeks ago during lunch. The chicken sandwich was so delicious. Would 100% get again just for takeout!

$100 for 2 cocktails, Mac & cheese, kale salad with chicken, and fish and chips. I have no idea how this place has such good reviews on Yelp. It's the equivalent of an Applebee's or Chili's. The Mac & cheese tastes like it was made with Velveeta. The fish and chips were just okay. My kale Caesar with chicken was a disaster. The Caesar dressing was bland and more of a cream dressing than anything. The chicken on top tasted like it was coated in salt and msg. It didn't help that we were sat under a speaker that was facing directly at the top of my head and even though the place was mostly empty the music was turned up and I could not hear what the server or my husband were saying the entire time. I know. I'm old and cranky and it's weird that I actually want to have a conversation when I go out to dinner. The only thing this place has going for it was our super nice server who is from Dublin. She was great, the few times I could hear her.
